My Ride: '04 530i sport, Titanium Silver
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi all. My lease on my '06 530i is up in a month and a half and I just ordered my new 535xi. Went with:
Monaco Blue
Black Leather
Poplar trim
Navigation
Sport package
Premium package
Cold weather
Comfort access
Satellite
Premium Sound
iPod interface
As much as I loved that fact that in Indiana (USA) when it snowed, my runflats froze solid and I got to play ice racer with my handbrake just to get up my driveway (approx 40 degree slope), I'm really looking forward to the all wheel drive to make things a little less...er...interesting in the winters!
I'll post some pics once it shows up!

Congrats!! One small suggestion...get the anthracite headliner. It's $500 but with black interior it looks great. The headliner on the car is gray and with black interior, it doesn't look as complete. It's a matter of personal preference, but I would opt for it imop!

Why the move to all wheel drive?
The one thing I will miss is my active steering. I think I'm part of the 0.003% of the world's population that actually loves that option.
